agreed

Still no set break and no refund. I'm being patient with these guys. Last communication I got was its happening.

Be interesting to see what happens. I don't usually mix work and pleasure, but occasionally being a class action lawyer comes in handy.

I reached out to Sheldon about a 2 weeks ago and he responded that it was still a go and he would be happy to refund me at any time just let him know. I am willing to hang in a little longer but just about to call it quits as it does not look like it is going to sell out any time soon.

I am sure this will get their attention!

The price point is entirely too high, and one of the parties involved has a less than stellar reputation. I wish them luck, but those two items right there are probably big factors as to why this is nowhere close to selling out.

At this point, the intention is still to follow through with the break.

Anyone that does not wish to wait can request a prompt refund by emailing: leighton@justcollect.com.

Just out of curiosity, what is the comment about a less than stellar reputation referring to?

[Snapolit1]

Refund requested. My first and final foray into set breaks. Like I need this aggravation.

He is probably referring to the VP's behavior on message boards. The VP has tarnished is own reputation for having a lack of integrity and bullying fellow collectors.

On 9-6 I posted, "Exactly why I sat this one out and have passed on many, many 1940 Superman cards from Just Collect." - A very simple and honest post that received a prompt and threatening PM from the VP.

The next day I posted a comment about the VP and decided to delete it because I thought maybe this wasn't worth getting into with a guy who behaves like a loose cannon. Since, I've noticed several other posts being edited I am wondering if he has been threatening them, too.

Just Collect's blog shares endless "finds" which come off as manufactured hyperbole to me. To buy a card off eBay is fine to complete a set for a break, but then to give an "approximate" value of 30% more in order to try to justify the price point, a lack of communication at the National, and seeing how difficult it was for customers to receive their promised "prompt" refund is borderline fraudulent, IMO.

But, I personally avoid Just Collect because of the comments their VP has made on collecting forums with memes making fun of mentally challenged people, mocking the Malaysian Airline tragedy, and comments about Rick Probstein's business practices and religion.

Patrick:

You are a liar. I advised you (and Bobby) that pointing out that you were thin skinned on CU and that you had a comment for everyone even though you may not have known about the topic was nothing to challenge my reputation over. If being dislike or pompous on a message board means someone has a questionable reputation or in not trustworthy, then many of us are condemned.

I stated in the PM that I would appreciate that you not take your personal dislike of me to the point of attacking the business that I work for. No threats. Nothing rude. I also pointed out that you and Bobby both complained about others contacting your work and how that was inappropriate. I find your latest actions and commentary rather hypocritical.

I don't like you. You don't like me. That's fine. But I don't find that as a reason to attack someone or question their ethics -- I guess that you do.
